The most thoughtful and considerate people for the tour.
The service was spot on! Reliable, dependable, and considerate of others. Ensured that we absorbed all of Ethiopia that we could.
Perfectly authentic.
I absolutely loved Astinaf!! She encompassed The heart of Ethiopia. I have been with this tour company twice and both weee educational and fun. I learned so much from her it was amazing !
An amazing experience
Was not just a travel, was a real amazing experience . Thanks to Lorenzo and Marco that are super professionals.What is more they are focused on partecipants and security
Caring, reliable, attentive, well organised, very professional
We just returned from a 2weeks trip in Ethiopia. It was (again) a well organized trip by Simien Eco Tours. The trip was perfectly managed by our tourguide Yirga and the various drivers and other people we had with us. Our wishes regarding destinations were taken into account and there was still room for spontaneous things.
But not tnly this, we have been supported by stuff from SET already before we started the trip (Thank you again Zewditu!) and the guys were even reliable with unforeseen requests (thank you again Marco!)
We do appreciate your way to carry for tourists and to make a trip unforgettable.
Professional and well organised.
I traveled to the Danakil Desert/Depression with a friend in February/March. We are both experienced travellers and agreed this was one of the best trips we had undertaken. I had it on my horizon for two years, but because of the security situation in Tigray, it had not been possible to go. I took a lot of soundings before the trip and Marco was very helpful in answering our queries via WhatsApp. Our guide, Kedemkachew Asegad (251 94 409 7799) was knowledgeable, well-organised and considerate of our needs - we were two women travelling. The Afar is not an easy place to travel and visitors to Ethiopia certainly could not do it without a guide. Lots of negotiations with the locals. Kede took care of all of that. I'd like to give a shout out to our cook Fentahun, who could make delicious meals out of whatever was available. Bekele and Wondem, the drivers, were helpful and professional. Seyed, who provided security, made us all feel very safe. Some of the highlights of the trip were the Dallol hydrothermal system, the salt mountains and Gaete Ale, the active volcano. Just be warned that this is not an easy trip - we slept under canvas one night and in the open air two nights. There is no accommodation to speak of, bathrooms etc. And temperatures reach 43 degrees centigrade. Worth the discomfort though. Many thanks to Marco and the team!
